will no longer sue my Sue,
My suit is spurned and oft denied,
The same slim prude is lovely Prue,
And Mollie is unmolli1ed.
Della no more with me will deal
Although she holds my heart in snare,
cannot make Ophelia feel
The darts that she has planted there.
Mabel I'm able to be free
From you, no more l am your slave,
And Grace, unless you smile on me,
l shall go gracelesS to the grave.
My Flora's heart will not o'erfiow
To my half-crazed appeals to all;
And Minnie'S most emphatic NO.
1t strikes me like q minnie ball.
And although Dora adore,
Yet she for me viii never care:
Though Cora pierced my bosom's core
She will not heed my suppliant prayer.
And Maud is modest when I'm near,
My presence she cannot abide,
And in regard to Clara, dear,
My mind is still mclalified.
And Winnie can never win,
And Carries heart won't carry me:
And Mary, though with constant din
plead, will never marry me.

The other day Mayor Kercheval, of Nash
vile, received letter from Philadelphia
notifying him that plot was on foot TO de-
stroy all monuments to the Confederate
dead throughout the Southern States The
letter stated that agents had already started
for Nashville, New Orleans, Charleston,
Columbia and Memphis. It is hardly prob
able that such plot is really on foot, but if
it is the agents sent South to carry it out
would do well to make their wills without
delay.

Responsibility of Quarantine officers.

Responsibility of Quarantine Officers.
The quarantine officers along the Atlantic
coast have a great responsibility resting
upon them The cholera has not disap-
peared from South America. On the con-
trary, the reports show that it is steadily
making its way northward, Only the
utmost vigilance can keep it out of our
ports. There have been reports of its APP
pearance on the Isthmus of Panama and in
Cuba, but these reports have not been
verified
The cholera was introduced into Buenos
Ayres through the negligence of the quaran-
tine officer Of that port, and thousands
of lives were destroyed by it in that
city and its vicinity. Doubtless it will
claim thousands of other victims in South
America before it leaves that country. Ii
the scourge gets a foothold in this country it
win be through lax quarantine regulations
or the careleSsness of quarantine officers.
The health authorities of the whole country
have had fair warning of the threatening
danger.

Labor in Japan.


The year before last I had to employ
two plasterers to repair a place in the wall
OF a house where a piece Of plaster of
two feet square had fallen out. The two
artists turned up at 10 a. m, and, sitting
down upon q couple of empty wine cases,
lit their pipes. At about 10. 80 a. m. one
approached the damaged place within a
yard, took a mental photograph of it and
sat down again. AT IL a. m. u mutual
friend appeared, who was warmly vel
~omed, and, after smoking a pipe or two,
AMUSED them by standing upon his head,
and by that time they had got very hun
cry and made a pause of two hours for
tiffin. Pipes again. Then the one who
had carefully sounded the wall knocked
another piece of plaster down. Pipes
again. By o p. IN. they had made the
hole about three times its original size,
and were so thoroughly exhausted that
they left of. Next day a stray drop of
water-wherever it may have come from
lighted on one fellows nose, and made
them conclude it was going to rain, so
that no work could be done in the after
noon. Well, to cut matters short, those
two square feet of plaster, that is river
mud, cost me So, though wages are but
forty-five cents per day.-Cor. Japan

a professor In a certain musical college
once told me OF a pupil who attended his
lectures-a young woman from some re-
mote place like Seattle or Los Angeles,
who attracted his attention by her extreme
devotion to her work, her regularity-ln
fact, by all that goes to make q pupil solid
with the faculty. Moreover, she was
beautiful as the day, with large and stat
uesque beauty, as Of a strong, full ma
ture, serene, calm and undisturbed. But
alasi when examinations came and papers
were handed In hers was found to be sim
ply impossible. 1t was evident that be-
hind that Juno like brow there were no
brains. In fact, sue a paper was never
seen before; even the spelling was ludi-
crous, while grammar and music were
equally injured and outraged In every
line. Tears could not move my stern
friend, and his report was-''not passed"
But 1t was intimated to him hat there
were reasons why 1t was absolutely essen
tial that the pupil should graduate, while
her knowledge might be acquired after
ward. Accordingly she applied for a re-
examination, and the questions were then
something like this: 1. Is not the SYM
phony the highest form Of purely musical
expression 2. Was not Berlloz remarkn-
BILE for his mastery Of ingenious orchestral
effectSt 8. Is not Bach called the father
of modern musicS "And TO my astonish-
ment and qualification, I" said the professor
gravely, 'to every one OF, these puzzling
questions she answered with great perspi-
cacity, Yes, and passed tr~iumphantly-
average mark in my class, 100 per cent. -"

A Clock of Skeletons.

We are told of a strange clock that is
said to have belonged to a Hindoo prince.
A large gong was hung on poles near the
dial, and all about upon the ground lay a
pile of artificial human heads, ribs, legs,
and arms. The whole number of bones in
the pile was equal to the number of bones
in twelve perfect bodies, but the pile ap-
peared to have been thrown together in
the greatest confusion. When the hands
of the clock indicated the horr OF l out
from the pile crawled first the number of
parts needed to form the frame of one
man, part coming to part with quick
click, and, when completed, the figure
sprang up, seized a mallet, and, walking
up to the gong, struck one blow. This
done, he returned to the pile and fell to
pieces again. When 2 o'clock came two
arose and did likewise; and at the hours
Of noon and midnight the entire heap
sprang up, and, marching to the gong,
struck N after another his blow, making
twelve in all, then returning fell to pieces

The manners of the old school, are,
In truth, always discovered receding fur
Their and further into the distant past,
until, as Mr.. Herbert Spencer now in
structs us, we are confronted by the real
original ''old school" in the manners of
h denizens of central Africa and the
islands of the Southern sea. The bow or
nod with which we greet one another is
merely q survival from the groveling on
the ground customary among our print
tive ancestors, and in later times illus
trated by the demeanor of the Otahei-
tans to Capt. Cook, or the Botokas to DR..
Livingston. 1t is, as Mr.. Herbert Spen-
Ger says, the first and the last stage in
the process of complete prostration, and
thence it may be traced through gambol-
ing ON all fours, kneeling, courtesying
and ''scraping'' among nations in vari-
Gus regions of the globe, until it presents
itself as the small and trivial recognition
which among US it has become.-London

IN. shopper. and the ss,ss,.ais.

The Shoppers and b sstssssdiesA
The State street wal is a social war, and
when we seek out its causes and nnalyzo
its character we find that It may be Ak
planned quite nationally. Everybody Likes
to feel that he is superior to somebody
else, and have an opportunity to show it
This opportunity comes TO a man In divers
ways. He can lord It over his employees,
or his s~ubordinates; he may patronize his
barber, or the cigar dealer, or the news
boy. But few such opportunities come to
the woman. She daren't go 1t too strong
with her servants for fear they'll leave
her. Besides, q good many women don't
keep servants, and among them may be
found many Of those who f~lercely lead the
assaulting columns In the dry goods
stores
1t Is in State street that every woman
find an opportunity to feel and enjoy and
give outward evidence of n sense OF superb
ority to somebody else. The average
shopper, no matter what her station or
circumstances, thinks herself several
notches above the saleswoman. She
shows that she thinks SO, too, and there
comes the trouble. The clerks, feeling
themselves at least the equal Of those
whom they are serving, resent either
p~atronizing or peremptory ordering about.
They have pride, too, and it rises up n
makes them belkgerent. The shopper,
trying to maintain the consciousness of .
superiority which, In fact, does not exist,
and which she isn't quite sure Of herself,
is naturally over suspicious and quick to
complain Of alleged inattention and impu-
dence. The clerk, allowing herself to fall
into the habit of resenting the airs OF her
customers, becomes chemically waspish
and quick tempered, and fails to discrim-
ate between women who do want to i'm
pose on her and those who do not. This,
l think, Is why we have a war on State
street,-hfiss Mufit In Chicago Herald.

l want to say a word about the popular
notion that every drop of water teens
with animalcules, and that when placed
under the microscope it will appear to be
literally filled with living things. This
idea is fostered by popular writers who
describe a drop of water as a globe filled
with life, and by lecturers who exhibit
pictures and enlarged images Of what they
call a drop Of water, but which is in re-
atty a considerable quantity of that liquid
which has been artificially supplied with
inhabitants. Clear well water is almost
free from microscopic organisms, and the
same is true Of the water from clear
